The 3D catalog: game boxes on wooden shelves, with the cat sitting at the counter next to its greeting.

The catalog in 3D

The same catalog has a room you can walk around in. The cat behind the counter is the AI Catbot, and they pick real games from it when you tell them what you feel like playing. Nothing is for sale, here or in there. Go in from here and this game is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

How it feels

A straightforward hack-and-slash crusade through human and demonic hordes, driven by a dire holy mission.

What players say

Players say this 2004 hack-and-slash holds nostalgic charm but is a mixed experience today. The combat is simple and repetitive, with constant enemy blocking frustrating some, while others enjoy the fast-paced corridor levels. A major complaint: the game runs in hyper-speed on modern PCs without tinkering, requiring fixes like dgVoodoo 2.
